If you or your staff ever wanted to know the answers to the above questions, then the Understanding UH Business seminar will provide a comprehensive explanation and a unique perspective on these subjects. The class instructors will walk participants through how transactions flow, who processes them, why transactions and the procedures for them exist, and what is the global effect – both internally and externally-of these transactions that flow through various departments and the PeopleSoft System.

The spring course will meet in the HR training room #341 (3rd floor) of the McElhinney building every Friday (seven consecutive Fridays total) from 9am until noon.
